Snapshot: This week in pictures

Michael Peake of the Toronto Sun stayed on focus as pandemonium broke out during an otherwise dull moment of the Toronto International Film Festival this week. Peake shot this rare action shot of a press conference, for the film Maglehorn, after the moderator accidentally knocked over a glass of water. That started a chain reaction of two other glasses knocked over -- whether on purpose or not -- and Al Pacino stood up to get napkins in his inimitable way.
